Chris Lane only lost one set, as he tried to adapt to the wind and to the style of play of his opponent, and finished his two rounds nicely. Kellen Roberts swept his sets, while Mason Dochterman only struggled in his first set and then swept the next two.

The Chargers’ doubles teams did really well. Ameet Braganza and Ryan O’Gorman got three sets, winning the last one in a tiebreaker 7-4. They won the tiebreaker against the same team that won the tiebreaker against Jason Lee and Justin Worley. Jason and Justin exhibited an exceptional level of tennis, and won the next two sets in a comfortable manner.

Landon Brand and Davide Gerli had a close first set, 4-6, then Ryan Daniel joined Landon to have a very tight set, 4-6. In the third round, Ryan Daniel teamed up with Davide and took the final set.

We saw great sportsmanship, camaraderie, competition and support from both teams. We also appreciate the coach’s hospitality.

Welcome to Noozhawk Asks, a new feature in which you ask the questions, you help decide what Noozhawk investigates, and you work with us to find the answers.

Here’s how it works: You share your questions with us in the nearby box. In some cases, we may work with you to find the answers. In others, we may ask you to vote on your top choices to help us narrow the scope. And we’ll be regularly asking you for your feedback on a specific issue or topic.

We also expect to work together with the reader who asked the winning questions to find the answer together. Noozhawk’s objective is to come at questions from a place of curiosity and openness, and we believe a transparent collaboration is the key to achieve it.

The results of our investigation will be published here in this Noozhawk Asks section. Once or twice a month, we plan to do a review of what was asked and answered.
